The design and analysis of transmission towers, which are essential components in electrical power distribution networks. As the demand for electricity continues to rise, optimizing tower design for efficiency, safety, and cost-effectiveness is the crucial requirement. A transmission tower 5 m high subjected to wind load as per Delhi and Bhopal regions are analyzed. The towers are also analyzed for different bracing systems X, inverted-V and W bracings, in order to check the effective bracing system in reducing the wind responses. The bending moment, shear force, displacement and steel take off were evaluated. It was observed that using W bracing reduces the wind responses more effectively reduced as compared to the X and inverted-V bracing systems. This study contributes to the ongoing efforts to improve transmission infrastructure, providing a framework for future developments in tower design.
